Last week's Illustration Friday – Impossibility (+ bonus Robot!)
So I forced myself to get out the watercolors today… I missed IF last week, and so you get *TWO*! pictures for today. This first one is what popped into my head based on this week’s theme of “Impossibility”. Well, not much of a stretch, as much of my odd world fits in that category.
“At Least Highly Improbable” -

I sketched this next on, after doing the original sketch for the Improbability above, and then did a very quick watercolor job on it. I like the looseness… it’s a good exercise I think. So, what do you like best?

- Alina fighting her computer made me giggle.
- Peter’s work is always lovely.. I especially like Tea Time, here.
- Honor Bowden’s beautiful watercolor women never disappoint.
- Chris Leavens lives in a world even weirder than my own!

Your work is so amazing..I loved all your watercolours
lovely work!
congrats
well I am glad you forced yourself, these are lovely and I love the looseness of the watercolors, your work is always so fresh, uplifting and unique.
The boxed in chap is so expressive – his pose says it all. And I love the bird on the bird – sorry call me a wimp but I cant pick a favorite!
Great take on the subject , fun picture !
I like the birds illo, so cute
I love the looseness, you make it look so easy which is always nice. Thanks for the mention. X
How lovely~! I so enjoy your whimsical watercolors!
Nice use of color and negative space… good work!
Nice work! Love the car launcher too BTW!
You do beautiful work with watercolors! I love it!
1) Nice watercolors!
2) YES @ Bonus robot. That’s always a good thing.
3) That’s cool that you link to other IF submissions you like. Fun!
thanks all!
yeah, I try to link to a few, but it’s so hard to pick just a couple of all the good ones!
Lovely colour and style as always.
By the way, why you love drawing Robot? Do you have special love to robot?
I find you robot is so cute but he also needs friends like us…
I like the character of the first one – is hilariously funny! But love even more the character of the second one! His position is so cute!…
yoon see, I’m not really sure where the robot obsession came from. I just enjoy drawing them… they are fun with no real rules, and they have such personalities.
Thanks all for the lovely comments and feedback! You guys rock.
Love the watercolor washes!
Awesome colors. Both characters are wonderful. Just love your robots.
I really like the top one! Great idea and the lovely washy watercolour!
Hahaha! Yes, that would be quite impossible for me to do with my neck! I love your bird bot! And the little guy in the box…he looks quite comfy in there. I say, he would look really great boxed up on a store shelf so that I could buy him.
OMG, your Twitter icon! HAHAHA! SO perfect.
